Episode 258: User Groups with Adam Burg
User groups have been meeting to talk about Apple products since the 70s. Pandemics are rough for these usually in person events. Yet we still want (and sometimes need) to chat about what we’re going through. It’s cathartic and helpful and educational and hopefully fun. Today we’re gonna’ talk about how some have shifted their meetings through the pandemic. In person to online to hybrid to online to in person to hybrid again and rapid shifts based on fluctuating cases and all!
